  • Abstract
    Dc current-voltage curves obtained for silicon avalanche diodes capable of oscillating in the high-power anomalous mode show no evidence of a truly static negative resistance; however, a dc negative resistance can be induced by transit-time oscillations and is responsible for yet another mode of oscillation.
